What to expect: First appointment with a Financial Adviser

This week we said goodbye to tech stock Altium from the Australian share market as its buyout by Renesas was officially completed… As a result, large cash payouts have been received by Altium shareholders. So, what’s the next step if you receive a substantial cash payout from an investment? Should you invest in the currently high ASX, or leave the cash in the bank? Rob & Amy share some smart alternate options to consider while the ASX is trading high.  To view the video version of this episode visit https://youtu.be/U-LhtxZJTys?si=3lfPLZciVxyuUem_ Robert Goudie, CFP, GradDipFP (ASIC Reg 235974) and Amy Lehmann, BBus (FinPlan), BBus (Acc) (ASIC Reg 1292710), are authorised representatives of Consortium Private Wealth Pty Ltd | ABN 74 616 250 965 AFS Licence 495401. 

Rob & Amy discuss all things tax this week, exploring the tax implications of investment properties, and how Aussies use negative gearing as an investment strategy. They also challenge the common biases many have towards property, comparing its returns with other tax-saving opportunities.  Here’s a question for you: Have you crunched the numbers to see if your negatively geared property delivers better returns than investing in the ASX? Something to think about!
